Clos Bellane Côtes du Rhône Villages Valréas Blanc 2024
Vintage Character
Clos Bellane Côtes du Rhône Villages Valréas Blanc 2024 belongs to a southern Rhône season that favoured freshness over excessive ripeness. Heavy spring rain increased disease pressure and demanded sustained work in the vineyards, while a less extreme summer and cool nights allowed a longer ripening period. Across the Côtes du Rhône, later picking brought fruit and acidity into balance. At Bellane, the high, east-facing setting offers a natural complement to that seasonal pattern: morning light and cooler conditions help preserve the brightness that carries this blend of Marsanne, Viognier and Roussanne.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Grapefruit and lemon give the nose a clear citrus direction, with exotic fruit adding breadth and a stony impression lending definition. The opening is fresh, followed by a richer, gently coating middle palate; its appeal lies in that meeting of generous texture and lively acidity. Citrus persists through a long finish, keeping the wine composed rather than heavy. Try it with grilled sea bass and lemon, roast chicken with herbs, or steamed prawns with ginger. These pairings give its fruit and body room to show while echoing the clean, refreshing edge.
Winery Background
Clos Bellane is a hillside estate near Valréas, guided by Stéphane Vedeau and a preference for balance and purity. Limestone soils, altitude and east or southeast exposures underpin that approach. In the cellar, strict fruit selection and movement by gravity protect the harvested grapes. The estate adjusts maturation to each wine and season, working with different vessels and the steady temperatures of partly underground cellars. For this white, the distinctive point is the combination of southern Rhône breadth with a cooler, more measured expression, supported by three complementary local grape varieties.
